in the crackerjack Cracker jach mine and the management expects to start distribution of substantial dividends before the end of 1920 driving of the tunnel by the yellow tiger company is making rapid progress and the lateral is expected to soon encounter the first of the series of rich silver gold ledges coursing through the and stonewall mines float carrying high values in silver and gold is show ing in the tunnel with the walls becoming stronger the tunnel is designed to develop to great depth numerous veins which have shown shipping ore in comparatively shallow wor workings kings the mines are situated in the stonewall district work humming at tobin properties driving for the starlight vein from the third level of the consolidated mayflower group at pioneer is making fair progress and within feet important developments are anticipated by general manager W 3 tobin work is also being prosecuted on all the main levels of the mayflower and below the foot point where ore indications are distinctly pleasing at this depth sulphide material has been encountered with the workings apparently entering the sulphide zone the steam plant is being im proved to burn crude oil instead of the more costly distillate sinking at the reorganized pioneer continues steadily and the shaft is expected to penetrate the sulphide belt soon the shaft is nearing the SOO foot point and immediately on reaching the water level cross cuts will be thrown out to seek the pioneer vein this ledge produced bonanza ore above the level in substantial quantities and below the broken formation is expected to resume its original strength and characteristics the property is controlled by W T J tobin and associates of denver new york and california |
